The Kruger - Sabi Sand - Simbambili Game Lodge - Impalas

Impalas are the most common animal encountered on safari. Our guide, Pierre, joked that they were the only animals he could guarantee we'd see on every game drive. He was right. Herds of them would leap across the road in front of our vehicle. They are graceful but skittish creatures.

Impalas are easily identified by the 'M' on their backside. It's a running joke in the bush that the 'M' looks like the McDonald's logo because (a) there's an impala on every corner just like McD's (b) they are such good eatin'.
